I love that the Job story is meaningful in all three Abrahamic religions. I think about it a lot-- less the climax where things turn out ok, but more the middle section where there's no hope of resolution. When I think about Job, my mind often pairs it with the story of the flood-- it feels like a dialogue, humans being like "God, I don't know what to do with you" and God being like "I don't know what to do with y'all."
